Congratulations to IAVM member John Christison, principal and managing member at BCI+Network, on being named a 2014 inductee into the Convention Industry Council (CIC) Hall of Leaders!
“The CIC Hall of Leaders is the highest honor to be bestowed in our industry. This year’s class truly embodies the qualities that are the hallmark of this award. They are the influencers and forward-thinkers who have shaped this industry and inspired many of us to be better leaders,” said IAVM member Karen Kotowski, CAE, CMP, CEO of the Convention Industry Council. “We are pleased to be back in Las Vegas for IMEX America week where the industry’s best and brightest will meet face to face.”
The awardees will be formally recognized at the Hall of Leaders Gala on Sunday, October 12, 2014, at the MGM Grand Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, kicking off IMEX America week.
The Hall of Leaders recognition program draws attention to the contributions that the meetings industry has made to the larger society as a whole by highlighting the specific achievements of industry pioneers and emerging leaders who not only changed the landscape of the profession, but changed the culture of business as well. Nominations are submitted either by CIC member organizations or the general industry community and honorees are recognized during the culminating awards ceremony and their stories housed virtually at www.conventionindustry.org/vhol.
